Reply to "Batting Out of Order, Batters Swapped -- NFHS"

One somewhat "interesting wrinkle" is if the defense decides to intentionally walk the current batter... Since in NFHS an intentional walk is a "time" followed by base award and putting the ball back in play it can thwart the offense's plan to put the proper batter up there. Defensive coach realizes offense is BOO, but his pitcher has already thrown a pitch. So if he calls time, requests IBB, then when ball is put back in play if he calls time again he can request the out for BOO. And has Matt points out - he better make sure he "knows" which batter is going to be the proper batter; otherwise, he could be placing the proper batter on base.
